"Intense garnet in color, it offers a deep nose of baked blackberries, Black Forest cake, Christmas pudding, and Chinese five-spice with hints of rosehip tea, cedar, and meat pie. Full-bodied, super rich, and wonderfully concentrated on the palate, it offers a rock-solid structure of grainy tannins and a long, spicy finish. (Wine Advocate 2019 - Lisa Perrotti-Brown)

About wine:

A blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petit Verdot, 3% Malbec, and 4% Merlot, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve Georges de Latour was aged for 22 months in French oak barrels, 90% of which were new. Intense garnet in color, it offers a deep nose of baked blackberries, Black Forest cake, Christmas pudding, and Chinese five-spice with notes of rosehip tea, cedar, and mince pie. Full-bodied, super rich, and wonderfully concentrated on the palate, it offers a rock-solid structure of grainy tannins and a long, spicy finish. At 15% alcohol, it is a beautifully rich, ripe, and opulent expression with an irresistible energetic freshness that compensates for the wine's aging.

About wine:

A complex red with notes of blackcurrant, undergrowth, and mint. Eucalyptus too. I love the aromas. Full-bodied with ripe tannins that roll across the palate. Very harmonious and precise. Needs four to five years to mellow, but already a joy to taste.
